(200 posts)4. Fortunately, FOX is just preaching to the choir !
Most thoughtful people in this country don't watch FOX News. The only types who seem to watch FOX News are fellow conservatives who are looking for the type of validation of their beliefs that they are unable to find through legitimate news outlets.
Fox, therefore, doesn't really make many conservative converts. Further, even though it's the number one in the cable news ratings, it still draws only a fraction of the audience that network news draws.
FOX News is no real threat to us. We would be better off focusing our energies onto other conservative enterprises which are doing damage to us.
